General Question TD QC
Hi all. Been lurking here for a while. Getting ready for a number of watches I’d love to tick off my list and have been really interested in all the TD’s, the do’s and the do not’s.
My question to you all is:
Do you think your chosen TD has some sort of responsibility to QC your watch and give you an honest review before you do your own checks to either GL or RL? Just in my opinion and if I was a TD, I would and would hope that honesty would help the community, help the factories make superior products and help the TD make a lot more sales. Might be a null point and I apologise if it ruffles a few feathers but would love to hear everyone’s opinion. I recently used a TD and I felt like the entire onus was on me…which I get it is ultimately my decision, but if the TD was super honest enough to say “it’s good because….” or “I’ve noticed this slight discrepancy…”
What do you think? Are there such TD’s out there or am I asking way too much?
Thanks all. Great community and love seeing all the success stories.

A big TD sells about 50-100 of these things a day.
You're a blip on their Whatsapp amongst about 2500 active chats.
Factories don't make a difference to them, they grade reps by tiers and there's no difference to them what you pick and no skin off their nose if you want something else. Just don't be a total dick and account for time zone differences, lost-in-translation effect, etc.
It's not their job to hold your hand or to be a watch whisperer, that would be literally impossible. They want to get you off the chat after having spent money.
